ABOUT POPERA

KQED’s “Country Music” by Ken Burns made us wonder why one of country’s first,

OK BOOMER, THE STORY



POPera is a story of love, unrequited love and even more love. A New Yorker,
following his dreams to “go west young man,” moves from the east to California
during the heyday of the 1960s and 1970s music revolution. The journey is
intertwined with many popular songs to which enduring memories are attached.

Reflecting the era’s groundbreaking music, those recollections range from the
baroque, as in rock, to quickly moving to the beat (of disco) to
baring-of-the-soul music. Welcome to the heartstrings-tugging, beat-pounding,
but most of all, danceable world of POPera.

TL;DR Background 😉
Baby Boomers are without question the most influential generation in the history
of modern mankind. In every aspect, the 73 million members of the Baby Boom
generation changed our world view, from aspiration to technology to
entertainment to governance to lifestyle choices.

America’s Boomers, however, are in a funk. A non-stop barrage of somber news is
shaking the very foundations of the society they helped redefine. Meanwhile, the
industry that produces one of their most cherished forms of entertainment,
music, is mired in a slump.

What America needs now is an inspirational and transformational experience that
will remind Boomers of all the remarkable feats they accomplished.

As Boomers age, they inevitably reminisce about the “good old days,” especially
after being chided with “OK, Boomer” by younger generations. 🤯 There’s no
greater emotional connection to a particular period in one’s life than the hit
songs associated with it. Beginning with Elvis Presley, Baby Boomers were
arguably the first generation with access to a whole new genre of music that
quickly grew from its rock-and-roll roots to encompass a far richer spectrum of
music than ever existed before.
